HW Cataclysm Mission 15 problem
I get to the end of the mission, but no matter what I do, when I click on "End mission", the screen goes into widescreen mode and everything just sits there. Workers continue reepairing ships, everything goes on as normal - but the mission doesn't end.

Any ideas?

I was kinda hoping to be able to get it running w/o patching the game up, since it warns me about savedgames possibly being invalidated.

technical support will always make you patch your game before they'll even start discussing anything with you anyway, so its pretty pointless.

Well, I used to get the problem (you get it in HW2 as well, only not as bad). It sometimes means you have completed the mission objectives in the wrong order, and the scripting gets confused, it's actually quite strict :)

Don't forget, they'll tell you to update your drivers and possibly even BIOS as well as demanding patchage. Bastards.

Does anyone have a HWC mission 15 savegame file from v1.01? I'd rather not have to replay the whole freaking thing... :-/

That's the one where you've got to recapture the Clee-San right?

I've had this happen a time or two, I like HW:C better than the original you see.  The way I fixed it was to redo the mission.  

Failing that, go back to the autosave from the end of the previous mission.  The script does get confused, but if it does it more than once, that means it's confuse from the start.

If you haven't already, assign each ship type to a quick key.
Strike Craft - 1(1 squadron of 10)
Multi-Beam Frigate - 2(4-5)
Destroyers - 3(as many as you can afford SU wise after the Dread and Tai stuff)
Dreadnought(1) and any captured Taiidani stuff - 4(If done right, you can have 3 Ti HCs by the end of the game)
Repair - 9
Carriers - 8(I always leave my carriers to give the CS a little fire support)

Where I fought in many guises,
Many names, but always me.

Actually, 15 is the one where you stop the Bentusi from escaping.

And I've had a captured HC since M6, and the 2 "captured" destroyers on loan from my allies since a few missions ago... cool thing is, the HC only takes ~30 SUs, and the destroyers ~6 (as opposed to the dreadnaught at ~90 and my destroyers at 38). :p

The main problem with the captured ships is that regardless of class, they can all be subverted.

Destroyer class upwards only take damage, says so somewhere in the game, once you've researched the Beast organism anyway :)
